The vicinity of the Armenian government building was again overcrowded
today.
Despite the heavy rainfall, employees of a gold market owned by
Vagharsh and Sons Ltd, Tashir and Malatia fairs today staged a protest
action against the amendments to the tax legislation by which they
must pay 11% of their annual turnover.
Hiding under umbrellas and polyethylene sacks the protesters were
shouting out, "Shame on You, Prime Minister!"
They demanded that the Prime Minister go out and talk to them
tete-a-tete.
"We do not evade the fixed payment but we cannot pay in this way
otherwise we shall lose our houses pawned in banks," said Marine
Minasyan.
"We are subjected to tax terror," they said.
The protesters are determined to take their claim to the street until
the issue is tackled.
